Both of these Kentucky Derby 2nd place finishers were aided by insane pace setups. Make Music for Me rallied from 28 lengths back to finish 4th under Rosario the Ice Box year.

No doubt but there subsequent figs aren't even close regardless of the pace...and Ice Box was gone a few races later....forever.

Ice Box stunk... and he made eight more starts after his 2nd place finish in the Ky Derby. He never had injury issues, he always had talent issues.

His finest moment was winning a nose decision over Pleasant Prince in the Florida Derby and paying $43.40 to win.
